Energy Tower at City Center was a skyscraper proposed for the city of Midland, Texas. The old Midland County courthouse would have been demolished to make way for the skyscraper.

History

Energy Tower was planned to stand at 870 feet tall with 59 floors (6 floors below ground). Had it been built, the building would have been the sixth-tallest building in Texas.[1][2]

The developers canceled the pending purchase agreement for the old Midland County Courthouse property, where they planned to build the project on September 10, 2014.[3]
